Jennifer Newkirk

Mrs. Jennifer Newkirk (M.Ed.) is experienced in teaching in public, private, and online settings and has been deeply involved with serving homeschool families and students since 2001, when she founded the Midlands Home School Band in Columbia, SC. She has homeschooled each of her children to varying degrees and has lifetime membership with the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA).

Through high school, Mrs. Newkirk was a competitive trombonist, earning spots in the SC All-State Bands and the SC Governor's School for the Arts. She completed her Bachelor's of Music and Music Education degrees at the University of South Carolina, where she also served as drum major for the Crossmen Drum & Bugle Corps (Drum Corps International); traveled nationally as a drum major instructor for Marching Auxiliaries of America; taught USC drum major camps; and served as a judge for marching band competitions across the Carolinas.

Mrs. Newkirk completed her Master of Education degree at Columbia International University in 2004, eventually serving as Vice Principal for grades K-8 at a private Christian school. She is lifetime certified as both a teacher and administrator/principal with the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI). At present, she teaches third grade for Freedom Project Academy and participates within the Riverside Military Academy community of parents.

Mrs. Newkirk and her husband have four children. She enjoys supporting her children's engagement in community activities, teaching her children to play musical instruments, taking family outings and more. Her family is active with Trail Life USA and American Heritage Girls.

Mrs. Newkirk joined the CFAF instructional team in 2021 and is excited to have a great year with CFAF students, developing their skills and appreciation of music as a means to glorify God!
